Hi, the deactivation of the autopilot happens when the side stick is initially moved. Holding full back-pressure (any side stick input) would not allow the autopilot to be engaged. At AlphaProt the low-speed protection kicks in but this is not associated with the autopilot in this case.
@@MindSpaceXAviation good point and thank you. When would the auto pilot disconnect for example if you were in vertical speed in a climb and you began to run out of energy ? Is it a function of AOA? Or just entering alpha prot? And once the auto pilot disconnects in this scenario in normal law at what point would the low speed protection force the nose over ? Would that happen somewhere inside of alpha prot or at alpha max ? Thank for this you are very knowledgeable
Great videos on your channel. Thanks Captain 😊
Appreciate the feedback. Don't forget to check the Academy where you'll find the full theoretical A320 type rating course. academy.mindspacex.com
Sir at what point in holding the side stick back continually to decrease speed in normal law will the auto pilot deactivate ? Right at alpha prot?
